It’s a tool that helps you build bar charts to compare categories quickly. Ours adds AI to sort values, choose orientation, set legend placement, and apply readable colors—so your differences stand out fast.
How do I create a bar chart with AI?
Describe what to compare and your preferences. The AI generates bars, sorts by value, sets vertical or horizontal layout, and enables the legend when helpful. You can tweak bar size, gap, gridlines, and colors afterward.
Can I sort bars by value automatically?
Yes. Enable sorting to order bars descending or ascending. This reveals the largest or smallest categories immediately and keeps your story consistent.
How do I show or hide the legend?
Toggle the legend in display settings and pick a position: top, left, right, or bottom. The legend maps each bar’s color and label for quick recognition.
